Leaked Nokia Lumia 1520 specs reveal 20-megaxpixel camera

The specifications for the upcoming Nokia Lumia 1520 have been leaked, indicating that a 20-megapixel PureView camera will feature in the device.

Nokia is expected to officially launch the device at the Nokia World event, but a leak has revealed some of phone's details earlier than expected.

A Lumia 1520 page appeared on Nokia's store on the Chinese website Tmail, which confirmed the quad-core Qualcomm Snapdragon 800 processor and the 20-megapixel PureView camera.

The device is expected to be a high-end one, with the Chinese site suggesting that it could be around £500 in the UK when it is added to the market.

It appears that Nokia is making a move into the phablet arena with this device, as the Lumia 1520 will feature a six-inch 1080p screen, putting it up against the likes of the HTC One Max and the Samsung Galaxy Note 3.

The addition of a larger screen and quad-core processor were made possible by the recent update to Windows 8.
